Citing privacy concerns, a U.S. representative has introduced legislation that would force video providers to display the message "We are watching you" if they use devices with cameras that monitor the activity of viewers.

The "We Are Watching You Act of 2013" bill also would require video providers to provide a camera-free set-top box and service if at a customer's request. Rep. Mike Capuano (D-Mass.) and co-sponsor Rep. Walter Jones (R-N.C.) introduced the bill, House Resolution 2356, on Thursday.

The bill would potentially affect Microsoft's Xbox videogame console, which uses the Kinect camera attachment to provide voice and gesture controls of games and entertainment.
